Overall Educational Objective To learn the basic components and characteristics of electric circuits and how to analyze electric circuits with mathematical techniques.
Course Description This course aims to introduce the sophomore students the basic components and characteristics of electric circuits and the mathematical techniques to analyze electric circuits. The course content covers basic circuit components and their current-voltage characteristics, circuit theorems and equations, DC circuit analysis techniques, RC, RL and RLC circuits, time and frequency domain analyses of AC circuits. The theoretical lectures will be coupled by laboratory work.
